"The Croods"

Writing Topics for APA Paper over “The Croods”
Choose one of the three:
1. In the film, “The Croods,” there are a lot of changes. Discuss how the film shows a change with the different levels being met in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs (or if you have a different needs scale that you prefer). Review and analyze how the film shows this process.
2. The concepts of light and darkness are brought up in many ways in “The Croods.” Review and analyze how the film brings up both the literal and figurative light, and discuss how this changes the Croods and Guy.
3. Seeing completely new things and environments can be shocking, scary, and/or amazing. The Croods learn to hide in the dark, but Guy was told to “follow the sun.” Review and analyze the coping and survival methods the Croods (and Guy) learn on their journey to “Tomorrow.”
This is the grading breakdown for the APA paper (in case you are curious). The same rubric will be used, but the content is worth more points. Originally this paper was worth 300 points, but since I was unable to meet with you the week before, I am knocking the points down to 200 (like the MLA paper).

If you did not see the movie, "The Croods," then look for it on Netflix, Redbox, used books/movies store, see if YouTube has an option to view them, or check out Amazon. Sometimes they have a download.
